5. Safety information

m Attention! The following basic safety measures must
be observed when using electric tools for protection
against electric shock, and the risk of injury and fire.
Read all these notices before using the electric tool and
keep the safety instructions for later reference.
Safe work
1 Keep the work area orderly
– Disorder in the work area can lead to accidents.
2 Take environmental influences into account
– Do not expose electric tools to rain.
– Do not use electric tools in a damp or wet environ-
ment.
– Make sure that the work area is well-illuminated.
– Do not use electric tools where there is a risk of
fire or explosion.
3 Protect yourself from electric shock
– Avoid physical contact with earthed parts (e.g.
pipes, radiators, electric ranges, cooling units).
4 Keep children away
– Do not allow other persons to touch the equipment or
cable, keep them away from your work area.
5 Securely store unused electric tools
– Unused electric tools should be stored in a dry, ele-
vated or closed location out of the reach of children.
6 Do not overload your electric tool
– They work better and more safely in the specified
output range.
7 Use the correct electric tool
– Do not use low-output electric tools for heavy work.
– Do not use the electric tool for purposes for which it
is not intended. For example, do not use handheld
circular saws for the cutting of branches or logs.
– Do not use the electric tool to cut firewood.
8 Wear suitable clothing
– Do not wear wide clothing or jewellery, which can
become entangled in moving parts.
– When working outdoors, anti-slip footwear is rec-
ommended.
– Tie long hair back in a hair net.
9 Use protective equipment
– Wear protective goggles.
– Wear a mask when carrying out dust-creating work.
10 Connect the dust extraction device if you will be
processing wood, materials similar to wood, or
plastics.
– If connections for dust extraction and a collecting
device are present, make sure that they are con-
nected and used properly.
– When processing wood, materials similar to wood,
and plastics. operation in enclosed spaces is only
permitted with the use of a suitable extraction system.
11 Secure the workpiece
– Use the clamping devices or a vice to hold the
workpiece in place. In this manner, it is held more
securely than with your hand.
– An additional support is necessary for long work-
pieces (table, trestle, etc.) in order to prevent the
machine from tipping over.
